Principle of operation (Fig. 2) The medium flows through the valve (1) as indicated by the arrow. The position of the plug (3) determines the flow rate across the area released between plug and valve seat (2). The plug stem (5) with the plug is connected to the stem (11) of the actuator (10). To control the pressure, the operating diaphragm (12) is tensioned by the set point springs (7) and the set point adjuster (6) so that the valve is closed by the force of the set point springs when it is relieved of pressure (p 1 = p 2 ). The upstream pressure p 1 to be controlled is tapped upstream of the valve and transmitted over the control line (14) to the operating diaphragm (12) where it is converted into a posi tioning force. This force is used to move the valve plug (3) according to the force of the set point springs (7). The spring force is adjustable at the set point adjuster (6). When the force resulting from the upstream pressure p 1 rises above the adjusted set point, the valve opens proportionally to the change in pressure. The fully balanced valve has a balancing bellows (4). The downstream pressure p 2 acts on the inside of the bellows, whereas the upstream pressure p 1 acts on the outside of the bellows. As a result, the forces produced by the upstream and downstream pressures acting on the plug are balanced out. The valves can be supplied with flow divider ST 1. The valve seat must be replaced on retrofitting the flow divider ST 1. 15 16 p 1 p 2 1 3 2 20 21 Actuator with two diaphragms and diaphragm rupture indicator 5 6 4 7 25 14 Pillars are turned into the plane of projection 8 For 300 to 400 psi (20 to 28 bar) Actuator with leakage line connection For 145 to 320 psi (10 to 22 bar) 85 psi (2 to 6 bar)/ 75 to 145 psi (5 to 10 bar) 11 12 Fig. 2.1: Functional diagram of Type 41-73 Universal Excess Pressure Valve 10 35 31 34 32 30 35 34 31 30 Bellows actuator Fig. 2.2: Various versions of Type 24 Actuator 1 Valve body (Type 2417) 10 Type 24 Actuator 20 Diaphragm 2 Seat (exchangeable) 11 Actuator stem 21 Diaphragm rupture indicator 3 Plug (metal-seated) 12 Operating diaphragm with diaphragm plate 25 Leakage line connection G ¼ (with ¼ NPT adapter) 4 Balancing bellows Control line connection G ¼ 30 Bellows actuator (with ¼ NPT adapter) 5 Plug stem Screw joint with restriction 31 Bellows with lower section 6 Set point adjuster 14 Control line 32 Additional springs 7 Set point springs 15 Compensation chamber 34 Bellows stem 8 Bellows seal 16 Filler plug 35 Bracket Fig. 2: Type 41-73 Universal Excess Pressure Valve 2 T 2518 EN
